The local Pub - The Holy Grail - was an amazing place for food and for just meeting people. The only minor detail was the beds were a bit soft for our liking, but other people might love them that way. Great stay overall.

House was comfortable and well equipped, only suggestion for improvement would be the addition of a vegetable peeler and some tumblers or pint glasses for the kitchen (it was a bit weird drinking Guinness out of a wine glass, but not a problem!). We would be happy to come back and stay again.

Such a lovely person to deal with. Property was maintained to a very high standard and had everything you could need or want. Beds were extremely comfortable. The views surrounding the property are outstanding. It feels like you are looking at a painting. Would recommend The Holy Grail for food, only a 5 minute drive away. Overall couldn't fault anything and would love to go back next year. Thanks for everything!
